HMI Lighting

Advantages of HMI lights include: Efficiency: 2 to 5 times as efficient as incandescents. This means they use less power and run cooler. Colour temperature: HMIs run at around 5600K, daylight temperature. This makes daylight shooting easier, as well as eliminating loss of light from gels (which are necessary with incandescents). Light Quality: Directors of photography speak highly of the light produced by HMIs.
